Utrogestan and endometriosis
Hi I take Utrogestan 100mgs per day and added the Oestrogel but the endo (I have 2 endometriomas in the one ovary they left behind after total hysterectomy in 2019) was flaring up and my IBS was getting out of hand (wind) so do I increase it to 200mgs?? Does anyone know??

Post menopausal endo?
Does anyone have any experience of going through the menopause and finding relief from endo? My current GP wants me to come off the pill due to high risks at my age (I have been on the pill for 31 years - purely to keep endo symptoms at bay somewhat). They tell me that they won't know if I have gone

Extremely low markers but still scared
My mother finished her therapies two years ago. From that moment her ca125 has always been decreasing, from 20 after the hysterectomy to now that it has reached a value calculated as less than 1. However, this is not enough to reassure me about a recurrence, because I read everywhere that the markers
